WARNINGS
ANY REPLACEMENT FASTENER (BOLTS, NUTS, CAP SCREWS, MACHINE SCREWS, ETC.) USED
DURING MAINTENANCE OR OVERHAUL MUST BE GRADE 8 OR EQUIVALENT UNLESS OTHERWISE
SPECIFIED.
WHEN RE-ASSEMBLING LOAD-BEARING DEVICES (CHAIN SLINGS, RIGID SLINGS, BACKUP LEGS,
ETC.) NOTE THAT THE ASSOCIATED FASTENERS MUST BE TIGHTENED TO THE CORRECT TORQUE
SPECIFIED FOR THAT SIZE OF FASTENER (SEE SECTION 3 - OVERHAUL). ANY THREADED FASTENER
IN A LOAD-BEARING DEVICE MUST BE SECURED WITH RED OR BLUE LOCTITE™.
A “LOAD-BEARING DEVICE” IS A CHAIN SLING, RIGID SLING, SPREADER BAR ASSEMBLY, FRAME, OR
ANY OTHER DEVICE THAT BEARS THE PARTIAL OR TOTAL WEIGHT OF THE EQUIPMENT FOR WHICH
THIS MANUAL HAS BEEN PRODUCED
THE LOAD-BEARING DEVICE SUPPLIED BY MCCOY DRILLING & COMPLETIONS IS DESIGNED TO SUP-
PORT THE EQUIPMENT DESCRIBED IN THIS MANUAL. MCCOY DRILLING & COMPLETIONS WILL NOT
GUARANTEE THE ABILITY OF THE LOAD-BEARING DEVICE TO SUPPORT ANY OTHER PART, ASSEM-
BLY OR COMBINATION OF PARTS AND ASSEMBLIES. MCCOY DRILLING & COMPLETIONS WILL NOT
GUARANTEE THE ABILITY OF THE LOAD-BEARING DEVICE TO LIFT OR SUPPORT THE EQUIPMENT
DESCRIBED IN THIS MANUAL IF THERE ARE ANY MODIFICATIONS TO THE LOAD-BEARING DEVICE,
OR ANY ADDITIONS TO THE EQUIPMENT DESCRIBED IN THIS MANUAL THAT ADD WEIGHT TO THE
EQUIPMENT, UNLESS SUPPLIED BY MCCOY DRILLING & COMPLETIONS.

A. SLING / LOAD BEARING DEVICE SAFETY
THE SUPPLIED LOAD-BEARING DEVICE (CHAIN SLING, RIGID SLING, SPREADER BAR ASSEM-
BLY, FRAME, OR ANY OTHER DEVICE THAT BEARS THE PARTIAL OR TOTAL WEIGHT OF THE
EQUIPMENT DESCRIBED IN THIS MANUAL) HAS BEEN SPECIFIED OR DESIGNED TO SUPPORT
THE EQUIPMENT DESCRIBED IN THIS DOCUMENT. FARR WILL NOT GUARANTEE THE ABILITY
OF THE LOAD-BEARING DEVICE TO SUPPORT ANY OTHER PART, ASSEMBLY OR COMBINA-
TION OF PARTS AND ASSEMBLIES, OR ANY ADDITIONS TO THE EQUIPMENT DESCRIBED
IN THIS MANUAL THAT ADD WEIGHT TO THE EQUIPMENT, UNLESS SUPPLIED BY MCCOY
DRILLING & COMPLETIONS.
MCCOY DRILLING & COMPLETIONS DOES NOT GUARANTEE THE INTEGRITY OF MODIFIED OR
DAMAGED LOAD-BEARING DEVICES, UNLESS THOSE MODIFICATIONS ARE PERFORMED BY
MCCOY DRILLING & COMPLETIONS.
THE MINIMUM SLING ANGLE (THE ANGLE OF THE LEG OF THE SLING MEASURED FROM THE
HORIZONTAL) MUST NEVER FALL LOWER THAN THE ANGLE SPECIFIED FOR THE SLING IN USE

• Otherconditions,includingvisibledamage,thatcausedoubtastothecontinueduseofthesling.
Inspect all lugs and fixing points for signs of elongation and/or bending, or for material build-up around the hole. Repair or
replace components that appear distorted. Ensure all hardware is tight and in good condition. Replace missing hardware if
necessary.Allhardwaremustbefreeofrustandcorrosion.
